Turned Out By a Thug

Tyroneshia is seventeen, grew up in a rough part of West Dallas, and is about to finish high school at the top of her class. She takes pride in her intelligence and has chosen to wait until marriage before having sex. As the eldest of seven siblings, she has seen up close the kind of life she is determined to avoid, and she has little patience for the choices her mother has made.

Everything changes when her best friend's older brother arrives in town for graduation. Tyroneshia begins to question her vow, especially given the gap in their ages, which is about nine years. With one summer ahead, she tries to draw close to him and win his attention. The question is whether he will look past her youth and let her in, or whether he is only leading her on.
